15. Use a rotary tool and cut-off wheel to trim the

axle at the mark made in step 12. Use vise grips to

hold the wire and to act as a heat-sink. This will keep

the heat from cutting the wire from transferring back

to the retract mechanism, which could melt the plastic.

Always use threadlock on metal-to-metal fasteners

to prevent them from vibrating loose.

16. Position the axle back on the wire and tighten

the screws using a 2.5mm hex wrench. Check the

operation of the gear using the radio system. Make

any minor adjustments necessary to make sure the

wheel does not bind in the wheel well during the

operation of the retract.

17. Use a razor saw to remove the alignment pin

from the landing gear door.

Note: Do not remove alignment pin if using

EFL297519.

18. Place a small drop of silicone adhesive on the

gear door where it snaps onto the main gear wire.

Snap the gear door into position. With the retract

up, position the door so it does not interfere with the

opening for the retract. Allow the adhesive to fully

cure before operating the retracts.

19. Repeat steps 1 through 18 to install the

remaining retract assembly.

1. Connect the lead from the flap servo to the

Y-harness plugged into the AUX channel of the

receiver. Use the radio to center the flap servo.

The use of a 36-inch servo extension during setup

will facilitate linkage installation by allowing the wing

to be separate from the fuselage and be mobile.
